Текст песни: Rio Grande + перевод

Oh, a ship went a sailing out over the bar

Away for Rio!

They pointed her bow to the southern star

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, boys away! Away for Rio!

Sing fare thee well, me Liverpool girl

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Oh, farewell to Sally, and farewell to Sue

Away for Rio!

And it’s farewell to you on the pier head too

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, boys away! Away for Rio!

Sing fare thee well, me Liverpool girl

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Oh them Bowery girls we’ll have you to know

Away for Rio!

We’re bound for the southern, oh lord let us go

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, boys away! Away for Rio!

Sing fare thee well, me Liverpool girl

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, boys away! Away for Rio!

Sing fare thee well, me Liverpool girl

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

We’re a bully good ship, and a bully good crew

Away for Rio!

But we don’t like the grub, no I’m damned if we do

New York town is no place for me

Away for Rio!

So I’ll pack up my sea chest and go back to sea

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande

Then away, boys away! Away for Rio!

Sing fare thee well, me Liverpool girl

And we’re bound for the Rio Grande!
